The Athletic Club traveled to Belarus on Monday with the
obligation to change the listless mood that led to three poor results in the
league and try to win at BATE Borisov in the new arena to keep intact options
be knockout UEFA Champions League.
The Bilbao team has done much damage last week and a
half, as three consecutive league matches in which hoped to make full or get
too close to maximum nine points against Granada, Rayo and Eibar, has barely
added one and has been stranded at the bottom of the table.
That 0-0 start in the league, coupled with the
precipitous rout BATE received by Porto (6-0) almost forces you to Basque side
to win tomorrow in Belarus and to not get behind Shakhtar and Porto qualifying
seating options in the second round to the third round, which will have to
visit the Julen Lopetegui at Estadio do Dragao.
Athletic is not at its best to visit a BATE also
depressed after the first day, but has the power and lure of playing in the
field, the Borisov Arena (13,000 spectators), and not have to have to move
Minsk, 70 kms., to play their European home games.
The top scorer last year in the League has suffered, as
has happened to others looking for a hole in the trusted block technical
(Moran, Unai López), the consequences of a bad game starts out citation
follows.
That seems to advance discard the intention of returning
to his Valverde block holder. Eleven punished for that stress to which the
schedule has forced him but enjoying her more confidence.
Meanwhile, BATE, incombustible and everlasting weak Belarusian
champion league, which has won the last eight seasons, host Athletic street
racing, and 25 days surpassed the domestic championship.
Heavily involved in the final phase of the competition,
arrives at BATE clash tomorrow after drawing this weekend at home to
fourth-placed and worn by one of the toughest leagues Belarusian recent years
and in that, three points in the table follows the historic Dinamo Minsk.
BATE is now a familiar opponent for the Spanish teams in
the group stages of the Champions League, which has already faced Real Madrid
(2008-09), Barcelona (2011-12) and Valencia (2012-13 ), without taking even a
single point from six matches.
